Keith sent me a message today to say the accomodation is now all taken for this year's reunion - so if you intend coming, but haven't yet booked - sorry but there are no beds left. Still come - but you'll have to find a local pub/hotel to rest your drunken head !!
Must be a record year - in 20 years of reunions I have never know this before - Fantastic!!

Official AOBA 2010 Calendar
I thought I should keep everyone updated with progress on next year's official AOBA calendar.
For 2009 I produced a practice run, so to speak, using a number of the photographs loaned to us by the REME museum. This was fine from a copyright perspective as we did not offer it for sale. However, in an effort to promote our benevolence funds, once we start offering an item for sale the use of any material raises copyright issues.
As you may know we have had a number of these problems relating to the photos loaned to us by the REME museum and as such were reluctant to produce a calendar for sale until we could be sure we were within the law.
I am delighted to inform everyone that we have now sorted a number of great photos with clear copyright and these are being sent to me PDQ. So I will be organising the official AOBA 2010 calendar without further delay and keep you posted regarding availability and price.
Whilst on the subject I feel I should let everyone know that there is a spurious 2010 calendar doing the rounds purporting to be approved by the AOBA, using - I'm sad to say - photos obtained from the REME museum without clear copyright. It's important for every one to know this have not been sanctioned by either the AOBA or the REME Museum - and that there are legal issues yet to be resolved regarding it’s publication - so you are urged not to support it.
